Has listened to it daily for two and a half years and says it lacks soundstage.

“I've been daily-driving the S12 Pro for 2.5 years, literally listening every day, and I can't say it has much of a soundstage.”

Calls it one of their favourite experiences in many years of headphones.

“for me the S12 Pro was absolutely one of my favorite experiences in my many many years of headphone experience.”

More than a year in: good imaging but hardly any soundstage.

“Using S12 Pro for more than a year now... Its has nothing to do with soundstage. Has good imaging but hardly any soundstage”

Found the Letshuoer sound a bit sibilant and spicy and prefers the 7Hz Timeless II as a step up from the ARTTI T10.

“The sibilance and "spiciness" of the Letshuoer range was a tad much for me. For those of you coming from the ARTTI T10 like me... the Timeless II is really the best step up.”

After nearly a decade in the hobby, lived with the S12 Pro for a month on a FiiO BTR5: a refined planar that's great for extreme metal and comfortable for hours.

“I have been listening to the letshouer s12pro for this entire month and damn these are the refined planar iem I would recommend. The original timeless and this are my favorite planars out there.”

Loves the S12 Pro but can't find the right tip yet: Dunu S&S are comfy but lose bass, Penon Liqueur either won't seal or hurt.

Owns the S12 Pro but enjoys it less than a $25 KZ PRX because they haven't found a fit: the short, angled nozzle hasn't sealed well with any tips tried so far, including Dunu S&S.

“I am not enjoying the S12 Pro as much because I have not yet found the right fit. I think the very short nozzle and angle are factors.”
